Thx for the input. I usually save images as jpg or png then insert picture. I
only use WMF when i copy and paste stuff, like from excel.

which method yields the smallest file size? (Inserting jpg or png or pasting
as WMF or pasting as EMF). Maybe I'll just try it out and report my findings.

Anyways, thx.

Even when you copy from Excell or other programs (I do it often from
SigmaPlot) you may wish to use Edit -> Paste Special, which gives you an
option of using several different formats, including .jpg.
I think, but am not sure, that if you size your picture in the source
program (or a photo editor) and then paste special it as jpg you get the best
trade-off between the size and quality.
